MANAMA: Bahrain Airport Company (BAC) has partnered with Airports Council International (ACI) World to Implement a virtual training course that will enable Tahleeq team members to safely continue the third module of their professional development programme during the Covid-19 crisis.
The eight-day virtual course, ‘Airport Non-Aeronautical Revenues’ includes a lecture by Instructor Andre Bergeron, team exercises, presentations, and polling exercises.
It is the first programme to be delivered through ACI’s newly-developed virtual classroom, outside of its Airport Management Professional Accreditation Programme.
ACI World is the global representative of the world’s airports and promotes professional excellence in airport management and operations.
BAC human resources vice-president Hind Mahmood said: “We have reached a crucial stage of the Airport Modernisation Programme (AMP), and ensuring our staff are ready for the transfer to the new terminal is vital. Through this course, our team members can continue to safely and efficiently develop the advanced skills required for the AMP. The health and well-being of our team members is a priority and we are complying with the directives of the authorities.”
The course explores non-aeronautical revenues as a key contributor to the financial success of airports, an area that has become more important in the wake of Covid-19.
